lr.peek_events

Checks for events.

void lr.peek_events( );

The lr.peek_events function suspends the Vuser script run and checks for events before resuming.

  • Scripts written in C language perform this check internally. Therefore, there is no need to use the lr.peek_events function.

  • Scripts written in Java do not perform this check internally. Therefore, insert this function into your Vuser script at the point at which you want the Vuser to pause.

Return Values

No value is returned.

Parameterization

You cannot use standard parameterization for any arguments in this function.

Example

In the following example, lr.peek_events enables the Vuser to pause at the start of each iteration. Pause events that occur during an iteration are effective only at the beginning of the next iteration.

    /* This example is meant to be run in iterations. */
    /* check for events */
    lr.output_message("About to check for events. Pauses can be intercepted.");
    lr.peek_events();
    lr.output_message("Finished checking for events/pauses.");
    lr.start_transaction("trans1");

    /* implement your logic here */

    lr.think_time(10);
    lr.output_message("Running test steps...");
    lr.end_transaction("trans1",lr.AUTO);
    return 0;
    }
